Sally Goldreyer said in court documents that the painting was discovered in the locker of one of her husband's employees after her husband died in 2009. She said the contents of the employee's locker were given to a friend who asked her to sell the painting for him, according to the court documents. The government said the painting was going to be bought by the Quinta Galeria but Sally Goldreyer refunded the gallery's deposit when she saw an Internet posting saying the painting was missing. Goldreyer signed an agreement with the government to return the painting to Castelli, though it said the deal "shall in no way be deemed an admission of culpability, liability or guilt on behalf of Sally Goldreyer or any of her agents, past or present." Bharara said Goldreyer "did the right thing" in returning the painting.
